titleCentral Table ZZZ Configuration: PSSIMPLETIPSW

If present, this ZZZ is used to control three behaviors.

  1. Turn the system's use of Simple Tip screens ON or OFF. Use values Y and N
  2. Optionally, this ZZZ also overrides the system's $500 default display threshold. The threshold determines whether the program displays fixed tip amounts when the bill exceeds the threshold, or tips as a percentage when under. 
  3. Optionally, completely suppress the display of $ or % buttons which enable clerks to choose which version of suggested tip amounts to display. 


PARM1,PARM2,PARM3

PARM1 = Y or N = Yes = No = ON or OFF.  Y meaning Yes, turn on.  No meaning No, turn off. The default is N, turn OFF.  

PARM2 (optional). The default is 500, meaning if the order's total is $500 or more, display the tip screen with fixed dollar amounts. If the order's total is less than $500, display the tip screen with fixed percentages first. 

PARM3 (optional). The default is NO. Hide the buttons labeled $ and % 


Example (1)

  • N
  • Turn OFF and do not use simple tip screens

Example (2)

  • Y
  • Turn ON and use simple tip screens with its $500 default display threshold

Example (3)

  • Y,750
  • Turn ON and use simple tip screens, and set the display threshold to $750

Example (4)

  • Y,375
  • Turn ON and use simple tip screens, and set the display threshold to $375

Example (5)

  • Y,,Y
  • Turn ON, use the program's $500 default threshold, and hide the $ and % buttons. This effectively prevents the user from overriding the default or defined threshold.

By default, the system displays four tip percentage amounts: 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%

Use this ZZZ to override the system's default percentages. You may specify up to eight (8) whole percentage amounts. 

Example (1) 

  • 10,15,20,25
  • Replaces the system's FOUR default percentage amounts with 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%

Example (2) 

  • 10,15,20,25,30,35
  • Replaces the system's FOUR default percentage amounts with SIX of your choosing: 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, and 35% 

Example (3) 

  • 10,12,14,16,18,20,22,24 
  • Replaces the system's FOUR default percentage amounts with EIGHT of your choosing: 10% to 24% in increments of 2%


Info
titleDisplay considerations

The tip screen has ample display space for six selections: four dollar or percentage amounts, plus the No Tip and Custom Tip options. There is a limited number of display space on the customer-facing tip screen. Test thoroughly when specifying more than FOUR percentage amounts, as this will impact how the screen displays options and make the interface difficult for the consumer to use. 


Example (4)

  • ,
  • Entering a single comma into the ZZZ will stop the program from displaying any fixed percentage amount, and only display the No Tip and Custom buttons.


Example of An example of the Customer-facing Tip Screen that does not suggest any tip amount. Note that the program displays the $ and % buttons because the PSSIMPLETIPSW ZZZ does not say to hide them.
